After a disappointing weekend in sports for Auburn, Parker was thrilled to have the opportunity to talk about some of Auburn's past victories with former Auburn placekicker Cody Parkey. Mr. Parkey played for Auburn from 2010-2013 and then went on to have a successful NFL career with several different pro teams.

This is not your typical sports podcast. Our host, Parker Grelecki, was born with severe brain damage due to hydrocephalus, excess fluid on the brain. The hydrocephalus was so bad, resulting in so much fluid buildup in his brain, that he was born with only 8mm of brain matter. From the very beginning, our prayer was that God would be glorified through Parker’s life and we are continued to be amazed at how God has answered this prayer in Parker’s life. At birth, we did not know if Parker would live, thrive, walk, talk, whatever. We were told that we would just have to wait and see what Parker would do. Well, here we are with our thriving, walking, talking miracle. Now, Parker has faced and continues to face a few setbacks and challenges, but it’s hard to say he’s been slowed down. So, that brings us to the podcast. Although Parker will never be able to physically play sports, he has an unparalleled passion for all things sports, having a dream to become a sports broadcaster. Unfortunately, he’s not able to attend broadcasting or journalism camps or programs. So, it was suggested, as part of his occupational therapy, that he launch a sports-focused podcast, so he could develop his interviewing and producing skills. During this podcast, Parker will talk with all kinds of people from all facets of the world of sports. Just like the start of his life, we have no idea what’s going to happen; we’ll just wait and see what he does. And so we bring you Parker, The Fan in Fanatic.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
